The concept of job satisfaction attracts much more attraction in recent years. Job satisfaction is a general attitude towards one's job, the difference between the amount of reward workers receive and the amount they believe they should receive. Employees are the backbone of every organisation. So employee satisfaction is very important. The main aim of this study is to analyse the satisfaction level of staff and labour in steel industry of Northern India. A questionnaire was designed that includes all individual and technical variables. A survey was performed from 146 employees (44 staff and 102 labour) of steel industry. Z-test and chi-square test is used to check the significant level and association level respectively. ANOVA test is used to check the level of job satisfaction of staff and labour on technical variables. The study shows that, individual factors have less effect on staff. Moreover, labour has great impact from individual factors. Technical variables show some effect on both staff and labour. 69% of staff are satisfied with their jobs and only 60% labour are satisfied with their job.

The purpose of this paper is to critically analyse factors impacting trust (and opportunism) in tomato supply chain in Arusha region of Tanzania. The study had two-fold objectives which lead to the proposition that willingness or existence of collaborative relationships in the supply chain, coupled with willingness/existence of sharing physical or information resources among the partners, influence trust and subsequently determine the extent of opportunism. The study adopted a multiple case research design involving several actors in the chain. The data were collected using a questionnaire. The study found that collaboration with inputs retailers, collaboration with tomato farmers, risk sharing with other partners and sharing of physical resources with other partners has the highest impact on trust. Thus, opportunism would increase if good business practices to foster trust as recommended are not adopted as stipulated in the listed factors and vice versa. Other factors such as culture and regional specific variables may have impact on trust and opportunism, thus constituting an area for further research.

With continued increase in business dynamics, it is becoming increasingly harder to deliver purpose-specific business system in the ever-shrinking window of opportunity. As business systems for the same intent tend to be similar but never the same, they have considerable overlap with well-defined differences. Software product line engineering techniques attempt to address this problem for software artifacts. Separation of business process concerns from application functionality, as advocated in process centric application development, demands solution on similar lines for business processes too. To this effect, we propose an abstraction for business processes that addresses composition, variability and resolution in a unified manner. We present the abstraction, its model-based realization, and illustration with an example.

Traditionally, businesses have used IT systems as mechanical advantage for automating static a-priori-defined repetitive tasks. Increased business dynamics has placed greater demands of adaptation and agility on to IT systems. Service-oriented architecture is a step in this direction through separation of business process concerns from application functionality. There have been multiple attempts at improving adaptability of application services with varying degrees of success. But current business process modelling languages and execution platforms can at best support optimal point solutions that are not amenable for agile adaptation. Application services have benefited to some extent, from product-line architectures related to adaptation to a-priori known situations. We can apply the same idea to business processes. This paper presents an extension of essential BPMN meta model supporting business process families, and a set of adaptation operators are presented in this paper. We describe their realisatio...

Many companies opt for reusing existing software development artefacts due to the benefits of the reuse such as increasing productivity, shortening time-to-market, and spending less time for testing, debugging, to name but a few. Unfortunately, reusing artefacts in existing process-driven SOA technologies is cumbersome and hard to achieve due to several inhibitors. First, the languages used for business process development are not intentionally designed for reuse. Second, numerous tangled process concerns embraced in a process description significantly hinder the understanding and reusing of its concepts and elements. Third, there is a lack of appropriate methods and techniques for integrating reusable artefacts. In our previous work, we proposed a view-based, model-driven approach for addressing the two former challenges. We present in this paper a named-based view integration approach aiming at solving the third one. Preliminary qualitative and quantitative evaluations of four use cases extracted from i...

In the last years, some large companies have been involved in scandals related to accounting and financial mismanagement, which represented a large financial damage to their stockholders. To recover the stock market confidence, certifications and manuals for best practices of governance were developed, and in some cases, harder federal laws were implemented (eg.: Sarbox, in USA). Companies adhered to these changes as a response to the market, deploying process aware information systems (PAS) and adopting the best practices of governance. On the other hand, companies demand a rapid response to strategic changes, so the adoption of normative PAS may compromise their competitiveness. That is, the companies need flexible PAS for competitiveness reasons; whereas, flexibility may compromise the security of the system because the users can execute tasks that characterize a fraudulent execution. In order to re-balance the trade-off between security and flexibility, we present in this work an anomaly detection algorithm for logs of PAS. We believe that the identification of anomalous events can help the adoption of flexible PAS without the loss of security properties.
